Anthony A. Campione

Anthony "Tony" A. Campione, crossed the finish line of his human race. He entered this world on a snowy IDEs of March, 1944 by and through the profound love shared by Salvatore (Sam the Barber) and Elizabeth (Bess nèe Watson) Campione, his much revered Mom and Dad. 

Known by many as one of the region’s greatest overthinkers and a consummate worrywart, rather than accenting the goodness all about him, he stressed way too much over the potential negatives in any given situation. As a result, he could never be content to let life naturally follow its intended course, and take from it/enjoy the fruits of his labor. However, the one thing that must be positively said is that this man truly loved and appreciated both family and friends with whom be was blessed, and of whom he was most proud. 

In moving on, this brother, uncle, and gruncle leaves to ponder his foibles…his very dear sister Mary (Ron), bon vivant nephew Jason (Bonnie) and beautiful nieces Liza (Patrick) and Becky. As well, there are his younger superstars: Connor, Adam and Claire Patchen.

Calling hours will be held on Monday, August 10, 2026 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at New Comer Cremations & Funerals, 343 New Karner Road, Colonie.

In faith, this poor soul has finally set sail.
